The major of my Bachelor’s degree is software engineering, especially about the software development technologies. In my daily life, I almost spend all my time in the computer and Internet, not only in my studies, but also in searching information and entertainment. With the development of social media technologies, which are based on the Internet, the focus of my life with the computer transfers from the single machine to the multi-machine based upon the Internet.
With the appearance of social media, such as the Facebook, Windows Live Services including the MSN and Windows Live Spaces, and many other share and communication services among many persons, my life with the computer is becoming colorful and exciting.
Firstly, I can use social media to keep in touch with my friends and family. Now I study and live in Sweden, but my family and many friends are in China. There is a very long geographical distance between us. With the help of social media, we can share different interesting things and communicate with each other easily and conveniently. For example, I can chat with my family with video and audio software tools. Then I can know how the life of my family is, and my parents can also know my study life in Sweden. Meanwhile, I can chat with my friends through the Internet beyond the physical distance. According to the Facebook, I can not only keep in touch with my old friends, but also meet new friends through my old friends or classmates. If without the social media technologies, this can be much more difficult than now.
Secondly, the social media technologies can help me learn more about things that interest me, not only in my studies, but also in other topics. During my studies, I have many problems to solve and many questions to answer, and then I can use social media to search useful information and discuss with other people. Recently, the financial crisis that starts from the USA attracts my attention. Then I use the social media to search and share related information. I can also communicate with my friends about their life during the financial crisis and know how it affects our daily life. I can deeply know the effects of financial crisis according to others’ opinions.
Thirdly, I can also use social media technologies to do other things, such like some interesting surveys or some small movements for entertainment or monument, etc. Through the social media technologies, we can share common opinions, and discuss different opinions with others.
According to my experience of using social media technologies, I think the future of social media is bright and it is with more hope than worry. Human beings are social animals, and we need to communicate with each other, so the development of social media technologies is necessary and it can serve us better.
